Toy Story name sign

This year I sold a bunch of signs personalized.  I really enjoyed doing them.  This I did with the Toy Story cartridge- talk about layers!!! HOLY COW!  I called my sister, who let me borrow the cartridge, at one point and told her NEVER to let me use it again!  Then it was finished and I loved it and it was so worth the layers!

I am linking this up to a linky party at Robin's Creative Cottage, come join us!

Butterfly Sign


One of my customers asked me to create this for her little girl.  I used Gypsy Wanderings for the butterfly and Lyrcial Letters for the name.  The cardstock is Coredinations Fancy Pants, I used that to give texture to the butterfly.

Christmas Coasters

I love making fun coasters, they are easy, fun, and inexpensive!

I go to Lowes and get inexpensive tiles, cut the paper, and Modge Podge it down.  Afterwards I spray it with Shellac a couple of times.

Do I need a Silhouette and a Cricut?

So..... I have a Cricut or two and love them.   I am considering a Silhouette- does anyone have both? Do I need both?

Christmas Cards





These Christmas cards sold fast at the craft fair!  The idea actually came from working with a friend on her Christmas cards.  I used Tim Holtz texture plates again, gotta love his stuff!

Gift tags





Here is a second project for today... some fun gift tags. 

I used nice shiny glitter and embossing powder to heat emboss the tags. 

Challenges:
Craft Creations- glitter and embossing
Crazy 4 Challenges - santa

Christmas Subway Art

For this I used a variety of fonts in my Gypsy.  I got a 12x12 canvas and just filled a 12x12 mat on my Gypsy.  Then it cut it out all together and made it super easy!

I painted the canvas red first, it took a few coats and then used white contact paper for the letters.  I modge podged over it after.

5x7 Christmas images



The coloring doesn't show up so well in these but I used fun shimmer paper.  I found a cartridge on my Gypsy, it must have been one of the free ones I got when I bought it that does those really detailed images.  I love the snowflake one.

CTO DT call and project!

So much has been going on and my poor blog feels so neglected!  I am hoping with the new year I will be able to get it going again and get back with all my bloggy friends!  I miss my bloggy friends!!!

My DT experience with CTO is coming to an end already, but this is a great opportunity for you to go over and give it a shot at joining their team!  I enjoyed it!

This week we had to do a Christmas project with no red.  This is a card from a set of cards I made for a craft fair.  I was looking for simple cards to make sets of.  I used one of the Tim Holtz Sizzix Christmas plates.  Isn't it super cute?! 

From now until Christmas I have a project a day to show you!  I hope you come back to see more!
